Hi, I need a version of sprintf() that will totally stand on its own. Most versions that I have found are tied to printf(), <stdio.h>, FILE and all that mess. In my case, I am running in an embedded environment with NO OPERATING SYSTEM at all to speak of and I certainly don't want to supply all the <stdio.h> stuff. I need a version of sprintf() that will do formatting for me and then allow me to do the I/O directly with the UARTs and other chips for output. I actually have a version, but its copyright status is a little shakey and it is a terrible implementation. (The warning messages fill a screen in Microsoft with /W3 dispite my repeated efforts to fix that and I would probably fall on the floor laughing if I ever handed the thing to lint.) If anyone could direct me to a "good" PD version I would appreciate it. Frank
